Nobody tells a new captain how to legally operate a business. Most start out of compliance and don't find out until it costs them — because their only source has been other captains, and other captains guess.
None of this is hard to fill out once you know it applies to you. Knowing that is the actual problem.
What kind, how much, and whether your policy actually covers what you're doing with it.
Whether you need to be enrolled, and when — this trips up more new operators than anything else.
What your state actually requires before you take a paying passenger out, and what doesn't apply to you.
What your credential actually allows, by passenger count and by where you operate.

This is guidance from a licensed captain, not legal advice. You are responsible for verifying current requirements against the CFR and your state and local regulations before operating.
